Use the or2 function?

loadrt or2 count=1
addf or2.0
net es1 pport.0.pin-10-in => or2.0.in0
net es2 pport.1.pin-15-in => or2.0.in1
net es3 or2.0.out => iocontrol.0.estop-in

(Something like that, I am guessing the pin names)

However, handling E-stop in software is usually not the best of plans,
you might want to consider looping the main breaker coil current
through both switches in series as a hardware alternative.
(Though I accept that a bamboo splitting machine might not be the most
dangerous of machines, and you can afford a slightly less robust
E-stop chain than on, for example, an ED-209.
